00:00Venezuela's Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Samuel Moncada, denounced
00:13in Caracas on Tuesday the United States' actions to destabilize the South American
00:18nation during and after the July 28th presidential elections.
00:27The Russian army followed several attempts at attacks by the Ukrainian armed forces in
00:31the Kursk region.
00:37And the Israeli occupation forces carried out an airstrike against the Old Man School
00:42in the city of Gaza.
00:44Hello, welcome to From the South, I'm Ana Marrero from the TeleSUR headquarters in Caracas,
00:53Venezuela.
00:54I'm Ana Marrero from the TeleSUR headquarters in Caracas, Venezuela.
01:09Venezuela's Permanent Representative to the United Nations, Samuel Moncada, denounced
01:12in Caracas on Tuesday the United States' actions to destabilize the South American
01:16nation during and after the July 28th presidential elections.
01:22The presentation was held at the Theater of the Military Academy in Caracas during
01:26a lecture on unconventional welfare.
01:29Moncada points out that elections constitute a moment of vulnerability in the political
01:34systems and that Washington took advantage of that situation to manipulate public opinion
01:39to obtain its own benefits.
01:41The Venezuelan official also denounced that Venezuela is being the focus of attacks from
01:46all angles aimed at criminalizing President Nicolás Maduro and to try to isolate the
01:51country and provoke social commotion.
02:01During the lecture on unconventional welfare, Moncada explained the structure of the attack
02:07strategy led by the United States and compared it on an octopus.
02:12And that's why the image I use is that of an octopus.
02:16That octopus on the right is like an octopus in which each tentacle is an attack line of
02:20different kind, diplomatic, economic, and communicational.
02:24The communicational battlefield is a battlefield, as it is the economic, the political, the
02:30diplomatic, and the military, and the interesting thing is that the octopus has a head.
02:35The tentacles are not loose on their own.
02:37There is a master coordinator, there is a central command.
02:41Here the idea of the central command is very well understood.
02:45And another image to try to be pedagogical is the orchestra.
02:51The Venezuelan prosecutor's office is currently investigating likely electoral crimes.
02:55As part of the case, three Samoans have been issued to form a presidential candidate off
02:59the far right, Edmundo González, who has failed to appear before the authority.
03:05Our correspondent Leonel Retamar brings us more information on the details behind González's
03:10strategy.
03:12The Venezuelan prosecutor's office issued an arrest warrant against the former presidential
03:17candidate of the far right, as González has not appeared, on the three subpoenas issued
03:22by the Attorney General for questioning him.
03:26For the alleged commission of the crimes of usurpation of official functions, counterfeiting
03:30an official document, public incitement to disobedience of the law, cybercrimes, criminal
03:35association and conspiracy, by virtue of the allegedly false or forged documents uploaded
03:41on the www.resultadospresidentialsvenezuela2024.com website as well as the already denounced massive
03:48cyberattack on the Venezuelan electoral system.
03:51González disregards he is being investigated for electoral crimes and alleges political
03:56persecution.
03:59And coward Mr. Edmundo González does not appear anywhere.
04:03He does not show his face to his own people.
04:05He and the far right wing summoned a number of youngsters to death.
04:08They summoned them on July 29.
04:12He did not serve the subpoena of the Supreme Court of Justice, either he didn't appear
04:16at the investigation hearings on the electoral process, as neither he, nor the political
04:21parties that supported his candidacy presented evidence to prove his claim of fraud.
04:28It could lead to a deeper political clash that accentuates the Venezuelan political
04:32conflict without taking into account neither the institutions of the state, nor the mechanisms
04:37of dialogue and negotiation that settle any existing dispute in the country.
04:42The underlying danger of this institutional contempt triggers violence, as it occurred
04:47after the electoral process.
04:53The route of violence, a more insurrectional route, is a route that may be seeking some
04:57kind of commotion, disregarding institutions to generate some kind of chaos and even adventures
05:01as those we have been witnessing in the past, assassination attempts, foreign intervention
05:06Along with the former presidential candidate, other far right leaders are also under investigation
05:12by the Venezuelan justice system.

05:40In Argentina, social discontent grows after President Javier Millet vetoed a reform that
05:45was meant to increase pensions in a context of severe economic crisis.
05:49In response to the veto, the Argentine justice system received the first legal actions for
05:54the elite branch of the duties of the public official against President Millet.
06:00The Compliante states that presidential measures should be investigated as part of a policy
06:04of mistreatment of the elderly, which leads to noncompliance with the guarantee of human
06:10rights and should also be considered as an attack from the state of the most vulnerable.
06:28The Russian army foiled several attempts attacks by the Ukrainian armed forces in the Kursk
06:33region.
06:34According to the Russian Defense Ministry, the units of the Northern Group of Troops

10:20The Israeli Occupation forces carried out an airstrike against the Old Lodnomak School
10:49in the city of Gaza.
10:50According to local media, the attack took the lives of at least two Palestinians, while
10:57around 30 were injured, several of them seriously.
11:02Israel justified the attack by claiming that the institution was being used as a command
11:07and control center by the Hamas resistance movement to apparently direct and carry out
11:11attacks against Israeli targets.
11:13These attacks followed another one perpetrated by Tel Aviv troops on Monday, September 2nd
11:19against the Safa School, which serves as a shelter for displaced Palestinians, and in
11:23which at least 11 people were killed.
11:33In the United States, pro-Palestinian demonstrators marched in the streets of New York City in
11:38solidarity with the Palestinian cause.
11:40Let's listen.
11:41So we demand arms embargo and demand the cease permanent ceasefire and demand people in Gaza
11:48should go back to their homes, should be free of Israeli occupation, and just release
11:54all hostages.

12:31from the country, including the unsecured base, the largest and most strategically important
12:37base housed in U.S. nuclear weapons.

12:46two crew members of the U.S. ambitious assault ship in the city of Sindra.

17:02committed to the mission of promoting and protecting the nation's rich heritage and
17:07efforts she considers a crucial step towards the global recognition that the country's
17:12treasures deserve.
17:13The minister assured that all the sites proposed have been recognized for their outstanding
17:19universal value, which makes them ideal candidates for the submissions to the United Nations

17:41a convention concerning the protection of the world's cultural and natural heritage
